Petter Storsten

MD, PhD

Petter Storsten got his MD in 2012 at University of Oslo after which he started as a PhD fellow. He successfully defended his PhD in 2021 which focused on the following:

The systemic right ventricle in adults with transposition of the great arteries
Right venticluar function during left bundle branch block and cardiac resynchronization therapy.
The effect of increased afterload on the left ventricle during left bundle branch block

In addition to publishing research papers, Storsten has presented several abstracts at international and national congresses.
